Subject: [PATCH v1 0/2] stability fixes for vmalloc allocator

Hello.

The vmalloc test driver(https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/1/2/52) has been
added to the linux-next. Therefore i would like to fix some stability
issues i identified using it. I explained those issues in detail here:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/10/19/786

There are two patches, i think they are pretty ready to go with, unless
there are any comments from you.

Thank you!
